Pont du Gard © Richard Sprang, Pont du Gard Tourism THE PONT DU GARD One of the wonders of the ancient - and modern - world Rising high above the Gardon River in the Gard, southern France, the Pont du Gard is one of the most extraordinary surviving buildings of the Roman world. Almost 2,000 years old, and almost perfectly preserved, this golden-hued structure is an engineering masterpiece and the sight of it takes your breath away.
